Pedal to the metal

Two Riddells Creek locals are ready to put the pedal to the metal this November.

Eris O’Donnell and Bernadette Power are joining the Great Vic Bike Ride for the third time.

Riders travel across the state over multiple days, with this year in the new five-day format.

Eris said he and his wife Bernadette are looking forward to another great ride.

“You don’t have to worry about a thing on the Great Vic Bike Ride,” he said.

“You get up, ride, have your luggage transported to the next campsite and get three meals a day.”

He and his wife are avid cyclists, riding for about 40 years.

“We’ve been all over the world cycling,” Eris said.

“We’ve been to Europe a couple of times, we’ve been to Asia a couple of times … it’s just part of our lives.”

Eris and Bernadette will ride through Mortlake, Koroit, Port Fairy and Port Campbell before arriving in Camperdown.
